The electronic networks are increasingly used as interactive,
multi-user and translocal workspaces. They are discovered
by artists for their own projects, as spaces for developing
and elaborating projects as well as for the presentation
of their collaborative efforts. The notions of interconnectivity,
of distributed artistic work and of collective creativity
are taking on an aesthetic dimension.

This Wiretap program
brought together a number of artists who were working on
the construction of workspaces on the Internet, and were
building up toolboxes for net activities. Artists who were
more generally using the Net, and especially the World Wide
Web, as their artistic environment. The afternoon was concluded
with the Killcola Ultralight performance by The Institute
of Affordable Lunacy I.B.W. (NL), in which a physical link
was forged between the virtual world of the Net and the
dramatic world of reality.
